About Michael
I began playing drums aged 10 and quickly developed a lifelong love for the instrument. I was fortunate enough to study with some great teachers in my native New Zealand and at Drummers Collective in NYC and P.I.T London. I have spent my entire adult life involved in the music industry and have been lucky enough to enjoy a career writing, recording and playing music around the world. For the past 25 years I have also been a music educator and have taught 1000’s of students of all ages, abilities and backgrounds in schools, education centres and privately. I am also the founder of (concealed information) and author of the Drumnuts, How to Play the Drums series of books. In 2022 I moved from New Zealand to Torbay in Devon, U.K with my wife and family to begin a new chapter in our life.

Whether you are a complete beginner looking to master the basics or an experienced player wanting to tackle advanced concepts, I can help. Welcome to your drumming Journey. My name is Michael. In our lessons, we’ll cover a variety of topics, including grooves, fills, stick control, technique, and coordination. Plus, you’ll get the opportunity to learn and play along with your favourite songs. I also offer group lessons, where you can collaborate with other students at a similar skill level. These group sessions not only make lessons more affordable, but they also provide a supportive, low-pressure environment where you can grow at your own pace. I offer 30, 45 or 60min lessons and will tailor each session to your particular needs and goals. Through my teaching experience, I’ve developed the ability to recognise each student’s learning style and adapt my approach to communicate effectively. I truly enjoy sharing my passion for drumming with others, and nothing beats the satisfaction of watching my students grow and develop as musicians.
Recommendations
Recommendations come from relatives, friends and acquaintances of the tutor
Michael is an excellent teacher. He taught our daughter drums during her school years and was always very patient and encouraging. He has a way of engaging with his students that always makes the lessons enjoyable. I would highly recommend Michael for drum lessons.
Lee. H.Michael is my brother and I have no hesitation in recommending him as a tutor/teacher. I myself am a UK qualified teacher. Michael is passionate about music and of course the drums in particular! Sharing his expertise both online and in-person is creating an incredible opportunity for drummers everywhere! Michael's years of drum experience both as a performer and a teacher make him an invaluable guide for beginners and experienced drummers alike. You will quickly appreciate his warm, friendly manner and his sense of humour; as well as his ability to put people at ease and create a dynamic learning environment!
